About the Contributors
Ethan Ravi, Editor-in-Chief
Hi! My name is Ethan Ravi. I’m a senior, and this year I’m the Editor-in-Chief and the host of Competin’/Eatin’ with Ethan. This is my fourth year on staff, previously I was the News Editor and Resident Food Critic (junior year), the Assistant News Editor (sophomore year), and a staff writer (freshman year). I love leading the Evanstonian because I get to work with our wonderful staff to tell important Evanston stories while pushing my creativity media-wise. Outside of the paper, I play tennis for the ETHS team, work at a local tennis shop, compete on the Math Team and participate in peer tutoring. In my free time, I enjoy reading, seeing friends and family, playing the piano and drinking coffee.
Sam Froum, Print Executive Editor
Hi, I’m Sam Froum (he/him) and I’m an Executive Print Editor. This is my fourth year on staff. Previously I was a staff writer, assistant editor of A&E and section editor of A&E and Photo/Art. I write for the Evanstonian because it helps me become a better writer and provides opportunities for collaboration with other students. At ETHS, I also run cross country and track and participate in Wildkit Buddies. Outside of school, I like to draw, run and watch TV.
Ryan Wambo, Managing Editor
Hi all! My name is Ryan Wambo (he/him). I am a senior at Evanston Township High School. I am also the managing editor and host of In Between The Lines. This is my second year on staff. Before my position change, I was a staff writer for the sports section. I love coming to the journalism room daily and bonding with editors and writers, not only as a publication team but as a family. There is nothing like informing the Evanston community in a fun and positive way! Outside of the paper, I play for ETHS’s varsity football and lacrosse teams. My other responsibilities include working in the front of the house at my local bakery store. In my free time, I enjoy walks, hanging out with friends & family, and watching movies.
Isaac Peng, Opinion Editor
Hey everyone, it’s Isaac! I am a senior here at ETHS and this is my second year on the Evanstonian. This year, I’m the editor of the opinion section. I am excited to work with various like-minded individuals on the Evanstonian and produce the best paper possible. Outside of the Evanstonian, I swim competitively year-round, and in my free time, I enjoy going to the beach, playing Spikeball, and hanging out with friends.
Will Klearman, Print Executive Editor
Hi! My name is Will Klearman, and this year I’m the Print Executive Editor, overseeing Sports, Feature, and Opinion. I’m a senior now and have bounced around quite a bit since freshman year — starting as a sports writer, then working as an opinion columnist, and later serving as sports editor. Working on The Evanstonian has been one of the most formative experiences of my time at ETHS; over these four years, I’ve learned a lot about myself and really found confidence in my voice. In college, I plan to study politics and journalism. Outside of school, I love watching movies, going to Trivia Night (shoutout Bob’s Pizza), and spending time with friends and family.
Anthony LaRosa, Assistant A&E Editor
Hi! My name is Anthony LaRosa, and I am the school A&E editor for the 2024-2025 school year. I am a senior and this is my second year on staff; last year I was a staff writer for the A&E section. I love reporting on the many arts-related events that go on around ETHS, and I am committed to making sure that school events are sufficiently covered in the paper. Outside of the Evanstonian I run Track and Field, Cross Country and I participate in DECA.
Nate Greenwald, Staff Writer
Hello! My name is Nathan Greenwald (He, Him, His). I am a Junior at ETHS and this is my 2nd year on staff for The Evanstonian. In the past two years I have worked as a photographer, working my way through various sections of the paper. I take photos for The Evanstonian, because it provides a place for young people to share their perspectives with the very large community at ETHS. As a photographer, I can help display these certain ideas, events, and perspectives, through stopping time in those moments. Outside of The Evanstonian: I swim and play Water Polo for ETHS, play saxophone in the ETHS Jazz Band and Symphonic Band, and take part in a few other clubs as well. For work, I have been teaching Learn To Swim, and have been working at my synagogue; both are jobs I thoroughly enjoy. Outside of school, I enjoy Art, cooking, watching movies, hanging out with friends/family, and playing all different kinds of sports.
